I'm not afraid of death. Death's afraid of me.

Don't get it right - get it WRITTEN!

For me the end of a book is just as exciting as it is for a reader.

A calm environment is for after I finish work.

So long as readers keep reading and my publishers keep publishing, I plan to keep on writing. I'd have to be an idiot to be burnt-out in this job.

I have a kind of old-fashioned, artisan approach.

I'm twenty-nine, yes really, I'm from Aspen, Colorado, I'm six feet one, yes really, I've been at Quantico two years, yes I date guys, no I dress like this just because I like it, no I'm not married, no I don't currently have a boyfriend, and no I don't want to have dinner with you tonight.
